TOURISM
First
of all I want to tell you a definitions about tourism according to the expert, In 1976 the
Tourism Society of England's definition was: "Tourism is the temporary,
short-term movement of people to destination outside the
places where they normally live and work and their activities during the stay
at each destination. It includes movements for all purposes."
In 1981, the International Association of
Scientific Experts in Tourism defined tourism in terms of particular activities
selected by choice and undertaken outside the home.
In
my opinion Tourism is an activity when someone travelling or visiting an
interesting places for vacation or recreational purposes for escape from the
daily routine, but sometimes tourism is not always for recreational purposes
but can be also for study, religious purposes, medical purposes and business.
Tourism can bring many advantages and
disadvantages especially in social and economic field. The advantages in social
field is encourages the preservation of traditional customs,
handicrafts and festivals. And the disadvantages is visitor behavior can have
effects that are less well on the quality of life of the community, for
example: drugs, alcohol problems, prostitution and increased
crime levels can occur. The
advantages in economic field are creates more jobs for local communities, it’s
bring in money and of course it’ll be increasing income for local economy and
the government, and the
tourism industry also provides opportunities for small-scale business
enterprises such as airport and hotel taxes, which can be used for schools,
housing and hospitals. And the last is the disadvantages in economic field are the
tourist might destroy or steal important things from the country, the
government must spending a lot of money for the cost of repair the
infrastructure such as roads, visitor centers and hotels.
